But Frederick digs deeper and gets Doug to explain the real strengths and weaknesses of this unique camera system.

About the Fuji X-E1

Sporting a 16MP sensor using Fuji's X-Trans technology, the X-E1 continues the company's history of refinements by truly listening to its customers. At only US$800 for the body and US$1,000 with a good kit lens, the camera is a strong competitor in the APS-C mirrorless market.

Doug also tested the X-E1 with five X-mount lenses including the Zeiss Touit 35mm f/1.8 and 12mm f/2.8. Excellent, but are they worth the extra cost as compared to their closest Fujinon equivalents? The answers are in the show!
